Approve or decline

Setup

Decide on requests as the owner or an admin.

Approve a request

Link to Approve a request
  1. Open Requests. The menu badge shows how many wait.
  2. Open a request. You see what was asked and who asked.
  3. Pick the Library folder and Quality, or leave both on Default to use the Request rules.
  4. For a show or artist, untick seasons or albums you do not want.
  5. Add a note if you want, and press Approve.

You should see the title in the Library. With Search when approved on, movies are searched at once and shows at the next feed check.

To clear a long list, press Approve all.

Decline a request

Link to Decline a request
  1. Open the request and press Decline.
  2. Write a reason, or pick a quick reason. The people who asked see it.

You can undo for a few seconds after you decline.

What approving changes

Link to What approving changes
Asked for Approving does
A show already in the Library Turns on the asked seasons
Music Keeps only the asked albums up to date
An album kind the artist normally leaves out, such as a single or live album Turns that kind on for the artist

The movie, show or artist page has a Requests card: who asked, for which seasons or albums, and who approved.

Symptom: “Tick at least one to approve.” Cause: every season or album is unticked. Fix: tick one, or decline.

Symptom: the approved title is not searched. Cause: Search when approved is off, or a show waits for the next feed check. Fix: turn it on in Request rules.
